That sounds right.
Also, perhaps we should consider not considering single quoted strings as such. Perhaps the same for the double quotes. The problem is that any arbitrary LaTeX construct is allowed between the quotes, in fact the quotes are not even required to close. They are treated by LaTeX just as regular characters, not as pairs, so perhaps we should treat them the same way.
Interesting… well, I don’t do much LaTeX so I don’t have any strong feelings about this. But not coloring strings does seem a little strange, I think stand-alone double quotes would be rather rare.
So I think we should let go of the single quotes (in pairs), but still keep double quoted strings, but then include $base inside the string, to still get normal LaTeX parsing.
